The world-renowned and acclaimed jazz magazine Downbeat published an interview with Ellen Andersson and put her on the map, also outside Europe.
Ellen Andersson has one of the most personal and distinctive voices in Scandinavian jazz right now. With sublime text communication, melody interpretation and improvisation, she lets seriousness and tradition meet play and the present, based on the American standard repertoire. With personal, innovative events, Andersson has been met with enthusiasm by both the audience and reviewers and has, among other things, been described as "a new world star". It is also not unlikely that the great talent will take her far, even outside Europe's borders.
Quotes:
"[...] a human being with a completely unusual artistic weight."
"So excellent is her record debut that for me it is the most remarkable and promising since Diana Krall's record debut in 1993."
- Ivan Rod, GAFFA
"It is impossibly fair that a mere 26-year-old reincarnation of jazz history's foremost voices should be able to deliver evergreens with such presence, warmth and skill, that time and space almost completely fall into oblivion."
- Maria Dahlström, Ljusnan
“Suddenly, Ellen shows up with a debut album that must be considered a sensation. She masters the entire vocal jazz palette, from Billie Holiday's sincerity to Nancy Wilson's print. Rarely has a singer been so longed for. Finally! ”
- Johan Norberg, Tidningen VI
